Anyone else wish that Bovada let you hide 6-max tables in addition to HU?

Download Table Tamer if you're gonna be playing more than 4 tables.

Thanks. Never felt the need for any additional software with stars/ftp or even merge, but bovada on its own definitely wouldn't work for me.

There is a MINIMUM buy in in say the 3-6 one on one room... you can also buy in for 300$ or more which I used to do at first.. In my first few years I would buy in for $300 which I call max in the 3-6, and that is the amount that would show up as a default if you didn't buy in for the minimum... but after seeing the pattern I just would buy in for the min 30$ knowing if I went all in I would survive.. why don't you either address the main point of my post instead of being a little girly bitch lololo
If you play limit it will 'feel' like the 'all in' always wins.


A short stacking stategy cant win in limit so when you see the 'all-in' mentally you know your opponent made a mistake and it therefore hurts more if it doesn't go right

also you get a 'high' off of a short staker in limit when you see a zero. It's like 'serves them right.' Or especially if you truly bust their acct. that's one of the biggest 'highs' ever and ill never understand why people turn off their chat...

So it hurts more when they win 'all in' in limit than if they were fully loaded and just on to the next hand in otherwords..

i know im not explaining this right but the deal is definitely straight.

This is precisely what I like about them. And It seems to be relatively easy to make the money with sound ABC poker early and a good knowledge of shove/fold late.

Haha I was on here and read about him too. He plays Zone poker though I thought. I actually gave it a shot that night after reading about his strategies.

First of all a short stacking limit player can win... Stack size really doesn't matter in limit.. If a guy sits with 500 and I sit with 50 or 100 and its 3-6, I can easily win... sure I could lose a few hands and go to 000 and have to reload but I also could take his whole stack if I ran decent.. it's WAY different then in NL where stack size is a huge factor..

As far as all in and feeling like they always win.. I Disagree. When you play 500 hands a day for 10 years of limit in heads up room(one on one lol) and see the all in player continually win pot after pot after pot when there all in including myself, when I'm all in you just know it's set to keep game going .. RAKE

That's exactly how I play these. The triple up turbos are my go to on Bovada. The only time they get tough is when most the table is still left and the antes have kicked in. It makes for wild games with big swings.

Okay I did a cursory search, and it looks like "Everyone is having trouble with seeing the hand histories."

Except I'm not--I'm perfectly able to view individual hand histories. But I'm missing the download option. It's been a while since I tried that--have they taken it away?

Also, as others have correctly said, multi tabling nit regs are not welcome at bovada.

Here's another theory...

So this explains why I have been snap-folding AA on Bovada the last three weeks.

Download buttons are still there for me for anything more than 24 hours old. This is for SnGs. Don't know about anything else.

Probably just the day of the week, but seems abnormally tight in 25NL and 25PLO tonight. I'm guessing Sundays are the big fishing day?

Playing on the OS X Mavericks client, I keep disconnecting in the middle of hands tonight. Wouldn't be that tilted except I keep getting booted from cash tables with +100bb stacks and can't get back in with the stack size due to being booted for five minutes. Never once had this issue before and it's not an issue with my ISP or connection itself. Anyone else having trouble today?

I already posted I sit with the minimum always now.. however in a 3-6 game you HAVE to sit with at least $30, so there is no all in on one hand.. If I could sit with 10$ I would ALL DAY LONG and I guarantee I would crush everyone because I would win my all in hand over 70%

Why do you say that? I was never a fan of the DONs on Stars back in the day, as they seemed too nitty and ultimately a crapshoot; but I just started playing on Bovada tonight and these triple ups seemed pretty sweet (at the micro level at least). More than once I saw big stacks get into huge pots with each other on the bubble when there was a shorty with like one-fourth the chips of the third-largest stack.

But here's my Bovada newbie question: how do I get my tournament history? Just a list of everything I registered for and how I placed is fine, not needing the hand histories necessarily.

I clicked on the sign up again, and the message was "thank you, you have already entered".
